• Her kit makes it very hard to pick her off.

Weaknesses:

• Requires good positioning to survive team fights.

General Tips for Miya:

• Communicate with your team: Let them know when you're ready to engage or need assistance.
• Farm efficiently: Prioritize farming minions and jungle creeps to accelerate your item progression.
• Practice makes perfect: Miya requires good mechanical skill and map awareness to play effectively.

Skill Usage:

• Passive (Turbo): Stacking this before a fight is great for maximum damage and attack speed.
• First Skill (Fission Shot): Use this to push lanes quickly or to deal extra damage to enemies in team fights.
• Second Skill (Rain of Arrows): This skill is great for zoning enemies or slowing them down. Use it to set up kills for yourself or your teammates.
• Ultimate (Turbo Stealth): This skill is your most important skill. Use it to reposition, dodge enemy skills, or to escape from dangerous situations.

Combo:

• The optimal combo for Miya is to start with her second skill (Rain of Arrows) to slow down the enemy, followed by her first skill (Fission Shot) to deal extra damage. Once the enemy is slowed down, use your ultimate (Turbo Stealth) to get into a better position and deal even more damage.
